Widow of Slain Rally Attendee Says She Received Call From Trump
CCP to DNC and then on to NYT ^ | July 16,2024 | Isabelle Taft

Corey Comperatore, 50, was killed while attending a rally for Donald J. Trump for the first time.

The widow of the slain victim in Saturday’s shooting in Pennsylvania spoke with former President Donald J. Trump on Tuesday, she said in a social media post.

“He was very kind and said he would continue to call me in the days and weeks ahead,” Helen Comperatore wrote, adding that she had told the former president that her husband, Corey Comperatore, “left this world a hero, and God welcomed him in.”

Mr. Comperatore’s sister, Kelly Comperatore Meeder, said members of the family had also spoken with representatives of the Trump campaign on Monday night. Ms. Comperatore Meeder said they had declined an invitation to speak with President Biden.

Mr. Comperatore, 50, was an ardent supporter of Mr. Trump and was eager on Saturday to see the former president for the first time in person. His sister said on Tuesday that her family believed that anger toward Mr. Trump was sown by President Biden and media outlets and had led to the fatal shooting.

The article is behind a paywall, but we all can guess what happened here...

A reporter probably asked her if she received a call from Biden. She answered that she refused to take the call.

So, then, of course, the reporter would’ve asked if she’d heard from Trump.

If Trump hadn’t called her by that point, she would’ve answered no.

IOW, she probably just answered a question. But, the news media hoped to make an issue out of it.

Trump expressed his condolences in a public message and his team started GoFundMe’s for the victims right away.

RIP, Mr. Comperatore.

“He was very kind and said he would continue to call me in the days and weeks ahead,”

If she did answer the spam call from Biden, I don’t think he would have remembered calling her, let alone remember to call her in days ahead.

I think I would have taken the call and recorded it.

It was MSN that fabricated the story that Trump did not call the family.

Now it is FACT among the assassin-minded left.
